    There's a place in the Georges Street arcade that does all that sort of stuff, generic american clothing, ginormous basketball tops, millions of baseball caps etc

    Not my kind of thing so I couldn't tell you any brand names, just passed it by yesterday

    Urban's right beside there too.
    I tihnk Zara has a small stall with Fubu stuff, and there's a place across the street from Arnotts...I can't remember what the streets called though....

    Roches Stores in Ilac Centre on Henry St. has some FUBU upstairs too.
    The place in Georges St. Arcade mentioned by Doctor J has the biggest selection I've seen, but I'd never buy any of it. Wigged out, FUBU especially.

    Dont bother with the place on moore street its real crappy, one side ali g clothes the other side nigerian shirts and crocadile skin shoes, its actually worth a look just for the laugh.

    The place on abby street and in georges street arcade are owned by the same guy, he owns a place on king street in belfast i think aswell. Dont bother with the georges street store the abby street one is like 10 times bigger they even have a dj in sometimes which can be a good laugh, they get some nice rocawear stuff in very rarly and it costs a bomb and they have all the usual mecca etc but its really all the left overs they cant sell in the states i think. Have to say the guys in abby street are sound they are a good laugh they dont take the whole bling bling clothes stuff too seriously.

    If your lucky or more importantly small you can get mecca etc in tk maxx, i once saw a cool jacket i wanted but unfortunatly it was only in medium but was great value if you could fit into it :-)

    I think thats all the shops in dublin, if you really want the good clothes that you could walk down the street in then save up and go to NY for a few days its dirt cheap clothing rocawear sean john etc can be got for as little as a tenner and its much higher quality and much nicer looking than youll get over here.

    Tribe in Stephen's Green centre is about all that's left really, Carhartt shirts and the likes.

    Ever since all the sound 20-somethings started fecking off overseas because of the recession there's been no money in selling streetwear / hip hoppish clothing in Dublin.
